Yes, all these posts are special to me, each in its own way. This one being a producer I have worked with, as well as consider him a brother. In fact, during sessions he's mentioned working with fellow his track mate.

Early RAN fans remember me writing about K. Clarke nearly a couple years ago. Singer, producer, engineer extraordinaire. The Palm Beach gold mine has teamed up with Broward, FL representer, Lawless for a success. This emcee embodies elements of a real artist from the 90's while adapting current tech.

Notice the influences of the greats in his flow. K. Clarke pays homage to the LL, and Boyz II Men classic with a slight sample. Of course, he put the Runway Music Group touch on it with the track and vocals! Lawless also bigs up the Golden Era hit in the closing of his verses. Even more reason why I find this so special.

Sam Cook Hunnid Grand brought the natural intimacy with likely events. I feel I've deaded phone calls at the sight of "The One." Overall, capturing those butterfly moments are lifelike. The actress meeting up with our subject on her break, after their studio sessions. Most of our readers are entertainers, so it's easy to find yourself in the same shoes.

This is real a song from a real man to real woman. Can't ignore when these examples are set. A fly, down to earth video available at YouTube. Watch, subscribe, and spread the word. Thank you All Nighters for staying up with me. Blessings in the name of Yahweh!

One of the luxuries of underground content is hidden gems. I feel like this artist says some of the slickest lines, and deserves to be on your radar. The Deity, V is product of a talent rich, inner city. Newark, NJ has given us talent and ambition from sports, music, to politics. We're running with the music for this post.

Deity is full of character, to say the least. Initially, some of his art work could be a little spooky. Once you listen to what he's saying and how, you're gonna be impressed. He is an emcee that puts as many of his experiences in rhyme, as possible. With all the personality he has, it makes it more likely. Too many people claim swag, personality stands out. I don't know if he knows it, but he has star power.

Shouts to Ahj, who worked on the production. Laid back Boom Bap, Lo-fi approach. Deity also put his hand in the mix. A line that sticks out to me, "I shine brighter than what moths seek" V brings you spiritual flows with slickness. The Lord brought me through warfare some time back. When I hear the artist, he addresses similar issues. Instead of trying to be gangsta, he's just honest. Much more credible, plenty people could relate. By hearing a talented rapper mention it, they might become more comfortable talking about it.

This is a thinkers tune. Do roll something up while you vibe to this heat. Drink if you have a smooth one. Get your version from Bandcamp, show your support. The more from you, the more beats to buy and studio time. Special thanks to our fans, keep passing through. More on the way for you. As always, I want to see you blessed by the Lord!

What It Sound Like?

The shadowy raps continue with this custom edition. Earlier, was a single. Now we get into an EP released by The Deity, V. He storms in exercising lyrics with cadences involving sacred names. Walking down a narrow path in Kumite produced by Brabus Reed.

The next tune comes through like a winter chill with harmonic loop from NC. Some dope wordplay, as well as Near Rhyme display. An attribute pointed out by fellow blogger Rap Seminar. "Legalize the smoke that way anybody can get it I know" Another sneaky line, it's the punches fighter don't see that get them.

V grabs a track from Heretic for some abstract poetry. Defining himself celestial, betrayed by and undervalued. Knowing his worth, the young lady is expected carry herself upon high. I respect where his mind is at. Adeadly double dose of Venom is a cipher based joint. Taz Grooze and DEMON973 join the freestyle over the laid back beat by NightChild.

One more soulful track from Heretic carries us out. Hear the record spin through the sample. V gives us a melodic flow. Confidence is proven through the voice inflection. He uses the range of his vocals to his best benefit. Bars are original as his style.

The Deity rhymes in the spiritual realm. The road less traveled in this game over saturated with cartel careers. Mamba is audio therapy. Something different and authentic. One more pick up from Bandcamp. Thank you to our readers and artists for your confidence. May Yashua bless you eternally!

Get the red carpet ready! One of our break through artists has a new reel to share with us. Continuing her campaign of her debut single, Che' Noir drops new visuals for it. This road to success has given us almost a fish bowl view of the artist's life.

We as fans feel a sense of connection with her family, since her father and mother are mentioned from time to time. Her parental structure was a sensitive one. Lyrics are full of nutrients, relative situations, avoiding fairy tales. Avoiding being perfect, doesn't mind to show flaws. The type of track layed by DJ T - Rell has rags to riches infused in it.

Within maybe a year and a half, Che' has made a music career. Attracting the ear of Benny The Butcher, as well as the business interest of 38 Spesh. Currently, see her as the cleanest thing in the abandoned building. Maybe it's her treacherous flow that demolished it. Just her and Mr Fam First in front the camera while G Rec TV Filmz. The 4K with minor filters was a great contrast to the scenery debris. Also see flashes of Ali putting gloves on his opponents.

Clear to hear why Che' gets her hand raised as the victor in the match against life. This young woman refuses to be a statistic in her city of Buffalo. Make sure you keep up, watch the video via YouTube. Stream on all majors. Get the upcoming project, Thrill Of The Hunt 2. Thank you to our loyal fans for all that you do. Jah bless!

Yea, we're in reel mode, seeing more vid submissions, lately. From the Bandcamp banger, The Diaz Brothers we heard blends of styles. Cocareef never lacks, you also got to see the outcome of him working with other emcees. Vega Arms is the bonus feature with Long Island lyricist, Bub Rock. Listening to this tune puts me in that good vibe. Reminds me of that feeling when rap was right.

Grassroots Hip Hop style with Onaje Jordan looping the foundation for the artists. He found the hardest point of the record to splice, it bangs. Bub is witty and in the zone. Selected slight hesitations at moments paint a picture of the artist feeling at home in the booth. Reef feeds the youth of Hip Hop while he explains feeding his own. Both figurative and metaphoric meanings.

The video itself, also uses some blending. Starting with an American trafficking classic to new age Asian mafioso. Action all across the board. Peep the multi-angled approach of Hip Hop elements expressed by the mind of Cocareef. Let's not forget that cover created by his artist, Anthony Calixto!

Enjoy this tune and video at YouTube, plus Bandcamp. Actually, recently released in all majors. Share it and follow. Thank you for keeping up with our artists, and site, Jah bless!

Been real good to see how everybody giving it up, right now. Not just quantity, the quality of the music is shining through. Tonight's tune is a joint we've touched on. This time, we got visuals! Whata Mess dug deep on his Long Verses With The Pope album. So this video is a pretty close picture to the tone set not only for St. George, but the entire project.

A throwback to the grimy days. No crazy special effects, just a raw scenery barely lit. The unknown location and spooky wall writings send chills. Grone Da Radikal directed, plus cameos as the only other person that Mess. Aggressive bars and delivery line up with background and cinematics. He reps Camden and Vineland of New Jersey. Let's just say, Gloucester County. Now, linking up with Mess in West Palm Beach.

The beat by Luis Blue is the element necessary. Bringing grittiness from Germany. You could tell it's not just rhymes on a track, or people with a camera. All of it fits together for that eerie feel.Another win for the loops, Whata Mess knows how to bring the personality out a producer's creation. This vid is not for the softees, it's here to make a statement. Real rap is here to stay. I appreciate artists going hard organically, especially behing so close in radius.

Get to YouTube and run it up. Also, get your hands on the album at Dat Piff. It takes nothing to follow and share, please do so. Thanks to the readers showing support. All the blessings pour on you from Yahweh!
